4-hydroxy- N, N- diisopropyltryptamin (abbreviated 4 -HO- DIPT ) also Iprocin, is a synthetic tryptamine with hallucinogenic effects. It is one designed by Alexander Shulgin tryptamine derivatives and is structurally related to psilocin, an ingredient of magic mushrooms. 4 -HO- DIPT is considered relatively short effective.

Pharmacodynamics

4 -HO- DIPT exerts its effect most likely like all "classical" hallucinogens, via the 5- HT2A receptor. However, details on mode of action are currently (2006 ) is unknown.

Effect

It is reported that after oral intake 15 to 30 minutes an effect is established. At higher doses, a heavily modified sensation is to be expected. The effect is similar to that of psilocybin mushrooms, but is described as smoother and less chaotic. Colors seem more intense and bright surfaces can appear pattern. Furthermore, it is felt intense music and an energetic body sensation is felt.
